Milan, 31 July 2025 – The Board of Directors of Pirelli & C. Spa met today and majority approved results to 30 June 2025 with the favourable vote of 9 out of 15 board members. Votes against were those of Chairman Jiao Jian and Board members Chen Aihua, Zhang Haitao, Chen Qian and Fan Xiaohua, while Grace Tang abstained.
The motivation of the board members who voted against the half-year financial report was solely linked - in continuation with that which was done when the 2024 results were approved - to the declaration of the cessation of Sinochem's control over Pirelli contained in the section of significant events during the semester of the report.
The 2025 first half results underscore a solid operating performance, despite the challenging context, confirming the effectiveness of the business model and key programs of the Industrial Plan. In particular:
The first half of 2025 saw further strengthening in High Value. In Car ≥18" volume growth was +5% (market +4%), with a reinforcement of the share both in the Replacement channel (Pirelli volumes +6% compared with market's +5%) and in Original Equipment (Pirelli volumes +4% compared with market's +3%) thanks to the strengthening of partnerships with the main car makers in North America and Apac.
There was a further reduction of exposure to Standard (Pirelli Car ≤17" volumes -9% compared with a stable market), in line with the strategy of greater selectivity, particularly marked in South America, to focus on more profitable products and channels.
The performance described above translates into substantially stable Car volumes on an annual basis, compared with slight growth (+1%) of the market.
In the first half of 2025 the company obtained around 110 new homologations with the main Prestige and Premium car makers, mainly concentrated in ≥19" rim sizes and Specialties.
Leadership in OE marked tyres was further consolidated: in Europe, for example, Pirelli can count on a portfolio of 1,300 homologations in Car ≥19", around 3 times greater than the average of competitors.
In terms of product innovation, the offering was reinforced with the launch of four Car products (the fifth edition of the P Zero at the global level, the sector's UHP tyre of reference, developed with Artificial Intelligence and virtualization; the new generation of the Cinturato – a summer tyre for the European market; Scorpion XTM All Terrain for North America; Cinturato P6 for the Apac market), two for Moto (Diablo Powercruiser and Scorpion MX32 Mid Soft, available in all regions) and four for Cycling (Cinturato EVO and P Zero Race for the Road segment; Scorpion XC M and Scorpion XC RC for the mountain bike segment).
In addition, the strategic partnership with Bosch GmbH continues for the development of new software-based solutions and new driving functionalities, thanks to sensors embedded in the tyres and Pirelli's proprietary software. The collaboration also continues with Movyon, a company of the Autostrade per l'Italia group, for the monitoring of road surfaces. This was added to by the cooperation with the Regione Puglia, announced on 10 June, to launch a monitoring system for the regional road network with the aim of creating a map of the "state of health" of Puglia's roads.

In the first half of 2025 the company achieved gross efficiencies of 69.7 million euro, in line with expectations and the program's development schedule. Looking at the Supply Chain, projects are continuing aimed at making the supply chain always more integrated, sustainable and oriented to customer needs.
In the first half of 2025 Pirelli posted growth in the main economic indicators.
Revenues were 3,498.6 million euro, growing 1.5% compared with the first half of 2024 and with organic growth of +4.4% (impact of forex and hyper-inflation in Argentina and Turkiye -2.9%). High Value represented 80% of total sales (77% in first half 2024).
In the second quarter of 2025 revenues were 1,740.0 million euro, -0.7% compared with the same period of 2024. Organic revenues growth was +4.0% (-4.7% impact of forex and hyper-inflation in Argentina and Turkiye).
| Revenue variants | 1 QTR 2025 |
2 QTR 2025 |
1H 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Volumes | +0.8% | +0.1% | +0.5% |
| Price/Mix | +3.9% | +3.9% | +3.9% |
| Variation on like-for-like basis | +4.7% | +4.0% | +4.4% |
| Forex/Argentine-Turkiye hyper-inflation | -1.0% | -4.7% | -2.9% |
| Total variations | +3.7% | -0.7% | +1.5% |
In the first half of 2025 the volumes' performance was +0.5%, the sum of the opposing dynamics of High Value and Standard. In particular in Car ≥18'', Pirelli outperformed the market, gaining share in both channels (Original Equipment and Replacement), while in Car ≤17'' the strategy of reducing exposure to less profitable products and channels continued.
In the second quarter of 2025 volumes were substantially stable (+0.1%), as a consequence of growth in High Value (+5% growth in Car ≥18'', in line with the trend recorded in the first quarter) and the already mentioned strategy of reducing Standard (-11% the decline in Car ≤17'' in the second quarter, -7% in the first quarter).
In the first half of 2025 the price/mix registered an increase of +3.9% thanks to the ongoing improvement of the product and region mix, while the channel mix was slightly negative because of greater growth in Original Equipment.
In the second quarter of 2025 the price/mix was +3.9% (in line with the first quarter) thanks above all to the improved mix due to greater exposure to High Value.
Forex had a negative impact of -2.9% in the first half of 2025 because of the weakness of the dollar and the volatility of emerging country currencies against the euro, a dynamic which was accentuated in the second quarter 2025 (forex impact -4.7% compared with -1% in the first quarter).

30/06/2025 | % of revenues | 30/06/2024 | % of revenues | Variation y/y |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adjusted Ebitda | 792.9 | 22.7% | 768.3 | 22.3% | +3.2% |

| Ebit | 479.6 | 13.7% | 466.6 | 13.5% | +2.8% |
In the first half of 2025 Adjusted Ebitda was 792.9 million euro, an increase of +3.2% compared with 768.3 million euro in the same period of 2024.
Adjusted Ebit in the first half of 2025 was 558.3 million euro, an improvement 19.2 million euro compared with 539.1 million euro in the same period of 2024, with an adjusted Ebit margin improving to 16.0% (15.6% in first half 2024) thanks to the contribution of internal levers that more than offset forex volatility, raw materials' cost increases and inflation as well as the impact of tariffs in USA applied from 3 May. In particular, Adjusted Ebit mainly reflects:
Beginning from 3 May, US tariffs of 25% on imports of Car tyres from Europe and Brazil came into effect. In addition, universal tariffs are in force that impact the import of moto and cycling tyres, with different percentages depending the Country of the production source. The net impact of tariffs on Adjusted Ebit was contained to 6 million euro thanks to the activation of the mitigation plan without which the total impact would have been 15 million euro.
In the second quarter of 2025 Adjusted Ebit was 278.5 million euro (+0.7% compared with 276.5 million euro in the second quarter of 2024, with the margin improving to 16.0% (15.8% in the second quarter of 2024). The price/mix (+51.6 million euro) compensated for the impact of raw materials (-29.1 million euro) and forex (-23.0 million euro). The positive effect of efficiencies (+44.7 million euro) more than offset the impact of inflation (-37.6 million euro). The contribution of volumes was limited (+0.5 million euro), while amortizations increased by 6.3 million euro. Other costs were positive +1.2 million euro and include the net impact of tariffs (-6 million euro) and lower costs (+7 million euro) mainly linked to R&D and marketing.
In the first half of 2025 Ebit was 479.6 million euro, an increase of 13.0 million euro compared with 466.6 million euro in the first half of 2024 and includes amortizations of intangible assets identified in the context of PPA of 56.9 million euro (in line with the first half of 2024) and one-off, non-recurring and restructuring charges and other of 21.8 million euro.
The result from equity investments in the semester was +16.0 million euro (+15.9 million euro in the first half of 2024).
Net financial charges in the first half of 2025 were 122.7 million euro, a marked improvement compared with 176.1 million euro in the first half of 2024. These values include the negativity linked to the phenomena of currency devaluation and hyper-inflation, without impact on cash generation, which went from 68.7 million euro in the first half of 2024 to 9.2 million euro in the first half of 2025.
On 30 June 2025 the cost of debt, calculated as the average of the last 12 months, stood at 4.88% (5.06% on 31 December 2024).

Fiscal charges in the first half of 2025 amounted to 108.9 million euro compared with 75.1 million euro in the first half of 2024, which benefitted from the Patent Box and the positive resolution of fiscal disputes.
The first half of 2025 saw an increase in net profit of 14.1% to 264.0 million euro, compared with 231.3 million euro in the first half of 2024.
In the second quarter of 2025 net profit grew by 4.5% to 136.8 million euro (130.9 million euro in the second quarter of 2024).
The net cash flow before dividends in the first half of 2025 was -503.7 million euro, an improvement of 15.5 million euro compared with -519.2 million euro in the first half of 2024 and reflects the usual seasonality of the business and working capital, as well as the effect of extraordinary operations. In particular:
The net cash flow from operations in the first half 2025 of -217.0 million euro, an improvement of 62.4 million euro compared with -279.4 million euro in the first half of 2024, and reflects:
Adjusted Ebitda, improved from the prior year;
Tangible and intangible investments of 128.0 million euro in the first half of 2025 (143.6 million in the first half of 2024) earmarked mainly for High Value activities, technological upgrade and factory automation;
In the second quarter of 2025, the net cash flow before dividends was a positive 193.0 million euro (substantially in line with the 154.2 million euro in the second quarter of 2024 excluding the positive effect linked to the disposal of Däckia)
The net financial position on 30 June 2025 was -2,678.7 million euro (-2,978.0 million euro on 30 June 2024 and -1,925.8 million euro on 31 December 2024).

Pirelli confirms forecasts – already announced in May – of a Car tyre market that is substantially flat (~- 1% ÷ +1%), with a more resilient High Value segment, driven by the replacement channel, and with Standard expected to decline. In any case, the uncertainties of the economic scenario could translate into a slowing of demand compared with estimates.
The United States of America generates over 20% of group revenues and around 5% of the country's demand is satisfied locally, in Georgia, thanks to a factory with the highest level of automation of all the group's factories, with 55% covered by imports from Mexico and the remaining 40% from Brazil and Europe.
The tariff scenario is still being defined: an agreement, whose ratification is expected on August 1, was reached between Europe and the USA on July 27, while regarding Brazil Pirelli is analyzing the provision relating to tariffs announced on July 30 to verify their actual application to the various product segments. Based on the laws that are today in force, the tariff scenario is the following:
Pirelli – based on this scenario – has already implemented a mitigation plan, acting on a revision of logistical flows, optimizing of inventories, adjusting commercial policies and a program of cost cuts in addition to the efficiency plan already underway.
Based on the results of the first half, Pirelli confirms – notwithstanding the worsening of the forex scenario compared with expectations in May and the uncertainty surrounding tariffs – the profitability and cash targets thanks to solid organic growth and the effectiveness of the tariff mitigation plan.
For 2025 Pirelli forecasts:

On the sustainability front, there has been significant progress towards the goals of the Plan in the areas of People, Climate, Product and Nature.

In the People program, wherein health and safety are among the fundamental pillars, the accident frequency index at the end of the semester further improved, decreasing by 3% compared with the values of 2024 year end.
In the Climate program, the Decarbonization plan continues in line with expectations, thanks to energy efficiency projects, the electrification of machinery in the factories and the procurement of electricity from renewable sources. The end of the first consolidates a reduction of Scope 1 and 2 absolute emissions by 16.5% compared with the first half of the prior year. The reduction of absolute Scope 3 emissions (supply chain) continues in line with the 2025 target (-27% compared with 2018).
The roadmap of the Product program saw the launch, in July, of the first tyre destined for the global market with over 70% bio-based and recycled materials, including FSCTM certified (Forest Stewardship CouncilTM) 1 natural rubber. The tyre is distinguished by the FSCTM marking and by a logo that identifies Pirelli tyres with at least 50% bio-based and recycled materials, including "bio-based & circular" ISCC+ certified materials, with third party verification in line with the ISO 14021 standard at the launch of production. Developed for Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), this Pirelli P Zero will initially be available on selected 22-inch wheel options for Range Rover, beginning from autumn this year, as part of JLR's aim to roll out tyres with reduced environmental impact across its luxury vehicles.
In the Nature Program, the group specific water withdrawal was further reduced by 7.2% compared with 2024 year end level.
In the first half, Pirelli garnered important international recognitions that confirm its global ESG 2 leadership, in line with the prior year.
In particular, Pirelli was re-confirmed:
***
1 FSC™ is an international, non-governmental, independent, and non-profit organization, established in 1993 to promote the responsible management of forests. license number: FSC™ N003618.
